Default Alignment

I just bought a new tib and i only have 800 miles on the car and its pulling to the right. If i take it back to the dealership will they fix it for me and will this continue to be a problem. I've heard a lot of horror storys about the alignment being an unfixable is this true?

Alignment is only unfixable if you have a bent suspension compent. did you hit any curbs? if not then you are ok

with the little millage that is on the car i don't think the dealer will give you any problems and they will cover the cost of the alignmet

Yeah, they should cover it unless there is evidence you hit something.

Before anybody starts hacking away at the alignment, give the front tyres a good inspection.
I've had a tyre delaminate in the past which made it pull to the side and feel like a wheel alignment problem.
I wasted a fair bit of time changing the alignment before seeing the raised section of the tread. D'OH!

make sure each tire is at the same tire pressure upfront.
